Good Intentions Songtext

von Gerry Rafferty

I asked my heart to talk to my mind.
They said don't worry, oh no, you're doin'fine.
So I went to the doctor, I said I'm misunderstood.
He said don't worry, why your intentions are good.

Now life is a hard school, when you're living a lie.
Tell me who'll bring you water, when your well runs dry?
Ah, but there's allways tomorrow, you'll do the things that you should.
You're just a sad eyed dreamer, but your intentions are good.

I am a man who keeps his head down in the sand.
If the spirit doesn't move you what's the use in making plans?
I've been to the mountain, I've been out in the rain.
I'm a long way from home but I can make it back again.
